Thread: Jaq's Most Likely Sporadic Food Diary

Well I've been doing Slimming World since October now and at one point had lost over 4 stone although 2 weeks all inclusive have left me with an impressive 11lb gain.

Am back on plan now and, as I weigh in on Tuesdays, am hoping to claw some of it back this week before my best friend gets married on the 22nd June. I've bought a dress for her wedding in a size 16 and I intend to fit into it.

I mostly do ee days with a few green mixed in if I have a vegetarian tea planned and feel like some extra hex's.

Anyways:

Sunday 10th June 2012 - Extra Easy

Breakfast - Banana (Ate really late because I didn't get sorted until 10am and had to grab this on the run)

Lunch - Prawn sandwich (Hex B for bread), Blueberry activia 0%, Cherries

Dinner - Smoked salmon fillet, green beans, broccolli, petit pois, large flat mushroom. Hartleys sugar free jelly (0.5 syns)

Snacks - 1 slice of Hovis Wholemeal Bread (3 syns), Multipack bag worcester sauce french fries (4 syns), Melon slice, Pepsi Max, Options Mint Flavour (2 syns), Glass of skimmed milk (Hex A)

Total - 9.5 syns

Not too bad but only because I have no sweet things in the house. They are my downfall!

Monday 11th June 2012 - Green

Breakfast - 2 Weetabix (Hex B) with Skimmed Milk (Hex A) and sweetner

Lunch - Tuna mayo sandwich (Hex B for bread) (0.5 syns for mayo)(5 syns for tuna), multipack bag french fries (4 syns), pepsi max, hartleys sugar free jelly (0.5 syns), cherries

Dinner - 5 bean chilli and rice, activia 0% yoghurt, melon slice

Snacks - Banana, Options caramel flavour hot chocolate (2 syns), Hartleys sugar free jelly (0.5 syns)

Syns - 12.5 syns

Today was originally going to be a red day hence the tuna but the vegetables that I was going to have for dinner come up at 8 syns and I begrudge spending 8 syns on something I could make myself for free. So switching to a green day and will just syn the tuna as it's the lesser of two evils!

Tuesday 12th June 2012 - Red

Breakfast - Weetabix (HexB) and Skimmed Milk (HexA)

Lunch - Tuna Mayo Sandwich (HexB for bread) (0.5 syns for mayo),Multipack bag French Fries (4 syns), Activia 0% yoghurt, Cherries

*****Weigh In*****

Dinner - Something probably not quite on plan depending on how my WI goes. It won't be something that's very very bad. Most likely will be a crusty cheese and pickle roll if Co-Op have any left by the time I get out of class which won't be until 8:30 tonight.

Snacks - Banana

Have high hopes for tonights WI as I have been 100% this week apart from some naan bread I munched on Friday night and have done SW for so long now to know that a small transgretion shouldn't be obsessed over. Also didn't weigh in last week as class was shut so hoping for 4lbs+. We'll see!

And the WI result was 5.5lbs off! Very pleased with that as it's half the gain off. Onwards and downwards!

Congrats on your loss x

Thank you! I'm really pleased with it!

Not enough superfree with my meals today I know, especially dinner but I was at a friends house so couldn't do anything about. I had a banana on the way there though to try and help a bit hence my two banana day. Must try harder tomorrow!

Thursday 14th June 2012 - Extra Easy

Breakfast - Strawberrries and raspberries with candarel

Lunch - Innocent aubergine moussaka veg pot (2.5 syns), Activia 0% yoghurt, Pepsi Max, Cherries

Dinner - Salmon fillet, Green Beans, Broccolli, Petit Pois , Activia0% yoghurt

Snacks - 2 x Rocky Road HiFi Bar (HexB), 2 x Aldi less that 70 cal bars (6), Options Hot Chocolate (2 syns)

Syns - 10.5

Just discovered that I'm going out for an indian on Saturday night and then a roast dinner on Sunday so trying to save up a few syns because I know, as much as I say I won't touch naan bread etc,that I'll munch a bit of someone elses so best to be prepared!

Friday 15th June 2012 - Green

Breakfast- Punnet of strawberries and candarel

Lunch - Aubergine Moussaka Veg Pot (2.5 syns), Activia 0% yoghurt, Cherries,2 x Aldi 70 Cal Cereal Bar (HexB), Pepsi Max

Dinner - Ikea vegetable pasta (HexA) diet coke, 2 x aldi 70 cal bars (HexB)

So today went off plan because we left earlier than I expected to drive to Skegness so instead of my planned dinner we stopped in Ikea on the way. Had the best thing I could considering. There was hardly any sauce on it so going to be cheeky and Count this as my HexA cos it was cheesy. I don't think it can be so bad as to cover both my HexA but can even count it for both if needs be. **tweak tweak**

But then....we stopped for fuel and OH got a chocolate selection. I don't have choc around because I am so tempted by it but was feeling low about my mum so ended up having curly wurly (6 syns), mini dairy milk (5.5 syns), mini milky bar (5 syns) and a bite of a freddo (2.5 syns) so that was 19 sync of choc bringing me in at 21.5 syns for the day.

Oh well, not the end of the world and I haven't had all my syns this week so far so the extra 6.5 can come from there! Hope I have enough in the bank!

Saturday 16th June 2012 - Extra Easy

Breakfast - Weetabix, skimmed milk (HexA) and candarel

Lunch - Large portion of cockles, pinks and a little seafood sauce (3 syns)

Dinner - 2 x popadoms and pickles (13 syns) boiled rice, lamb bhuna (18 syns) and 1/2 a garlic naan (12 syns) Chocolate fudge brownie sundae (estimated 35 syns)

Snacks - 6 x hovis digestive biscuit (18 syns)

Syns - 99 syns!!!

Yesterday was a weird eating day because I'm not at home. We went to Skegness seafront and it was so hard to resist the chippies and ice cream but managed to just have seafood for lunch off one of the stalls. No superfree I know but ho hum.

Because lunch was so small I was starving by the time we got in and so had a couple of biscuits with a cup that turned into 6!

So... The Indian was ok. Food was lovely and the sundae was absolutist delicious! Need to do some damage control now though! It was well worth it though and I'm not going to beat myself up because I enjoyed myself!

On the slight plus side, have just checked the packet of the digestives and they are 37 calories per biscuit so 2 syns each meaning my biscuits were 12 syns not 18. Thank heavens for small mercies. Today is now a not much better 93 syns!

Sunday 17th June 2012 - Original

Breakfast - None as I woke up too late

Lunch - Pork, Beef, Turkey, Cabbage, Swede, Carrots, Peas (2 syns), 1/2 an individual yorkshire pudding (1.5 syns), 1/2 a stuffing ball (2 syns) and gravy (3 syns)

Dinner - Chicken wrapped in bacon with babybell light (HexA), Banana

Snacks - 3 x Rocky Road HiFi Bar (HexB x 1.5)

Syns - 8.5

I do love a cavery and for once managed to resist the roast potatoes although they did do boiled ones so I did debate switching to extra easy but decided against it. Ate so much veg at lunch time that I wasn't really hungry for my tea so just did the chicken as it was going out of date and had that. Was lovely though so will have to do it more often.
